Electroencephalogram
Electroencephalography is a cerebral exploratory method which measures the electrical activity of the brain with electrodes placed on the scalp. The EEG is an indolent (painless) and noninvasive test that provides information on brain activity for diagnostic purposes.

Electromyogram
The electromyogram is a test used to record the electrical activity of a muscle or nerve. The test consists of two parts: examination of nerve conductions and the examination of muscular activity evaluated with the help of a needle partially inserted in the muscle.

Evoked potentials
The evoked potential is an electric cerebral activity following a stimulation of sense organs (visual, auditory, touch). These potentials are collected using surface electrodes. This technical procedure is harmless and with very little discomfort.

Those services are not covered by the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec but most of private and group insurances cover part of them. Receipts for income tax purposes are available.

RESEARCH AND TRAINING

Clinical research is a field in development since the therapeutic approaches are increasing and treatments for pathologies that were without solutions are now surfacing. Certain neurologists from the clinic are combining clinical practice and research and play an important role in medical training at university hospitals as well as by participating in continuing medical training activities. The clinic regularly welcomes medical students and residents.
